does any one know a place with a beter price to buy a power converter to be used for car shows only??????

thanks for your help!

 

can u be more specific? because there are many different types of power convertors. and what u call cheap, others may call expensive and vice virsa. so give us some specs of what ur looking to get and how much u want to pay. might help.

 

Better price than...what?

No one can answer that if you don't provide any data for comparison.

What's the best price you've found and how many amps did the unit support? If you'll state those numbers, people might be able to assist you.

 

am sorry guys i know my question sounds dumb but is all i know.
what i am looking for, is one of those power converters that people use on indoor car shows so they can power alectrical stuff, cuz most indoor car shows require your batery to be disconected.

i hope this will give you guys an idea of what i am looking for.

I appreciate your help.

 

Do you have a sounds system or strobes, or anything that draws a lot of current?

 

yes i do have sound system and in dash dvd, under lighting, strobes, iterior lighting.
that's all.... i think

 

Well I searched around for a while and came up with something like this... http://www.iotaengineering.com/dls90.htm 90 amp cause i think thats the output of the alternator and runs at about 13.4 volts. Have fun with it, and should be about 350.

 

Thank you bery much!!!!

i really apreciate your help man,

you guys ROCK!!!

 

dude any time. If you go to www.froogle.com its kinda like google but tells you where you can get the best prices for junk. When I was looking for that for you some guy on a civic forum said he had the 60 amp on and ran it three hours straight then turned it off and ran it for another 4 hours with out it over-heating. He said he had a 1000 watt sound system, halos, underglow and a bunch of junk.

 

keep in mind, shows typically charge 100-150 bucks for electrical. there are ways around it but i can't tell ya ;)

 

Oh yea, like it's a secret, everyone connects their battery...

 

no its called making buddies with the event coordinator so you can have your name on the list
